Great location. We stayed in unit 3 and the patio/balcony was the highlight of the apartment. Place as very clean and well equipped. Unit had a bit of a stale/damp smell that are common in places so close to the ocean but small price to pay for such a great view and falling asleep to the sound of waves every night. Aside from the area right outside the units, there isn't really a beach area to walk. There is a public access beach right down the road. It wasn't an issue with us, we never wanted to leave the patio/balcony! The other 3 units all share the common areas but again, it was never an issue with us. Everyone was nice and respectful. Overall, it was a great stay at a great property. Great location. We would stay again!

It was a great stay!! So nice having coffee on the patio overlooking the beach!!! It was clean and beautiful!!

The front door lock was not working, could not get in or get out for first 4 days, till they replaces the lock.

It was a great place to stay. However, we were not able to utilize the outdoor common areas as the other guests had their wet clothes and towels on all the furniture outside. Other than that we enjoyed it.

The property was perfect. It was quiet and very clean. The staff was on call all weekend for any problems that arouse, and were very friendly.

Comfortable and convenient.

Very smooth procedurally and the place was great.

We had a very enjoyable stay at this property. The only things I did not give 5 stars was the cleanliness because when we opened up to use the pull out couch to watch TV (because the coach is very small and not comfortable enough to sprawl out and watch TV / the ocean view), it was clear the bed sheets hadn't been cleaned in a while as there was sand that came out. There was clean sheets provided in the master so we just used those instead. The pull out coach bed is horrible and we actually ended up using just the mattress on the floor. I feel bad for whomever actually has to sleep on that one day. No matter for us, it was just myself and my son and our beds (especially the master bedroom) was very comfortable. The condo itself is very loud due to its age. You can often hear the wind banging against the walls of the property and banging against the sliding doors which literally woke us up the first night several times. The next few days weren't so bad. We loved hearing the waves however crashing on the shore. The other issue was that communication with the automated text system the property manager has set up is hit or miss. Sometimes we got replies, and sometimes we didn't. Our questions didn't require any type of emergency response or anything so it didn't affect out stay, but that was one of the questions asked in the survey. The parking is extremely tight. We have a Toyota Prius and it was so tight that one of us had to leave the car to exit before parking so we could fit the car in the space. Good luck if you have anything bigger than that. The view and the patio is why I booked the property and that was very good. The only thing we thought could be better is that if you're sitting on the porch in the regular chairs on the patio, you can not see the ocean through the lattice type fencing they have on the porch, so we used the bar height chairs instead so we could see. A glass enclosure or similar would fix this. We were in walking distance to Carlsbad beach area (if you want to walk 2 miles) which was fantastic as they have many shops, restaurants, etc. to enjoy. Our dog was not allowed on the Oceanside or Carlsbad beach where this property sat, so we took him to the Encinitas beach which did allow dogs. We would definitely stay again if we couldn't find other properties that satisfied our needs.
